Why doesn't my inbox detect deleted emails from the icloud

I have multiple devices(MACs, ipads and my newest Iphone 4s) connected to the cloud with my email account. Why must I delete emails on all of the devices? I thought the icloud was supposed to be able to manage that? Please help me from spending my eternity in deletion ****!
Thanks

What sort of email service do you use (IMAP or POP)? If POP, are the messages you are expecting still on the server?

If it hasn't already been overwritten you could try attaching the phone to your PC - get to the DCIM folder and then run something like this

After adding a new account, I can't delete emails from the inbox of this account.

I just added a sixth account to my Thunderbird installation. There was no problem adding the account and I can send and receive emails without problem. However, I cannot delete emails from the inbox. What should I do to correct this?

It is a POP account.
I just backed up the profile.
I don't know the size of the inbox nor how to see what it is nor change it. However, the inbox for this account is currently empty. (Yes, I know this post is about not being able to delete emails from the inbox, so how can it be empty? In my research I found a post of someone with the same problem who discovered he could move emails from the inbox to another folder and then delete that folder (not the individual mails in the folder, but only the entire folder). That is how I emptied the inbox, but it is a very cumbersome work around that I shouldn't have to do.

Hi my ipad mini keeps deleting emails from the in box I want them left untl I am ready to delete. Please help!

In theory, an IMAP server should never present different views of the same inbox to different IMAP clients. (I assume you did verify that the laptop and the older iPad were accessing the server using IMAP; some servers offer both IMAP and POP.) The clients could react differently, but I am not aware of any settings that would cause what you are seeing.
I know this sounds like a cliche, but have you tried power-cycling or resetting the iPad Mini?

How to prevent iPhone 4 with iOS 5 from deleting email from the MSN server

when I was running iOS 4 I could sent my iPhone to never delete emails from the server but I just noticed that after the update iOS 5 when I delete an emial from my iPhone it shows up as deleted in my Outlook on my laptop. I looked and was not able to find a setting to prevent my iPhone from deleting emails fromt the server.
Am I missing something?

Thank you for responding! The music I no longer want, I removed. This is why it's confusing me so much. The music I've deleted from both my iPhone and my computer is STILL showing up in my Music on iTunes, under my iPhone in devices. Does that make sense? I'm not particularly down with the techie lingo. Haha.

Welcome to the Apple community.
iCloud mail is only doing what it is supposed to do. If you wish to keep mail on your computer but remove it from your iPhone, and then move it to an "On my Mac" folder in mail on your computer.

How do I stop my iphone from deleting emails from the server and visa versa

I have the iphone 4, recently my phone started sending email info to the server. Meaning it deletes emails from my hotmail account if I delete them off my phone and visa versa. I know there is a setting under advanced setting, I don't have that button. I showed someone in the apple store and she said it was a software issue and to wipe my phone and back it up from my back up, this didn't help anything, neither did re setting the settings. I don't even have the spot in the settings where I can put in the pop3 information. This is a new thing my phone started doing and I don't understand why I don't have the same setting buttons as everyone else. Any advice? The only other thing I can think is wiping my phone and starting over but I don't want to lose the data in my aps
I'm on the newest software version, this started happening just before I did that update.

POP3 settings won't appear if an IMAP service can be found. Basically, you're going to have to set up the account with bogus information so that the phone can't find the server by itself. Then, when it can't, you'll be presented with the advanced settings where you can set it up as POP3 and enter the settings you want to use.
POP3 is considered pretty much obsolete these days. The whole point of IMAP is to allow you replicate the server based mail store completely so that all information is available across all of your devices. If you don't want things crowding your in-box, but don't want to delete it entirely, why not just set up folders and move things where you want them to be once you read them?

Why does my iPad 2 only store emails from the last 3 or 4 days?

Why does my iPad2 only store emails from the last 3 or 4 days? I have it set up to store the last 1000 messages but I can't seem to keep them...

What is the account type - POP, IMAP, or Exchange?
If a POP account, are you also accessing the account with an email client on your computer? If so, what is the account setting for removing messages from the server after being downloaded with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account?

How do I delete apps from the icloud account ?

When I download an old app that used to work perfectly , it no longer works . I was told to delete it from my devise and reload it from the app store but I do not get that option when i search the app. I only get the option to load it from the cloud and it doesn't work once loaded. How can I delete the app from the icloud so as to download the app directly from the app store ?

Downloading it from the cloud is downloading it from the App store.
Your most likely problem is that your iOS is too old to run the App, unless you can update your iOS there is little you can do about this.
